Spider mites...no surprise

hey everyone, so im in week 6/7 of flowering my 10 plants and id say there are a few spider mites. i went to my local hydroponic store and they suggested that i use sucrashield and coco wet. has anyone had any success with these? next step is neem oil most likely...let me know guys!! thanks!

I've never heard of those products but I like SM90 for spider mites. The label doesn't say anything about using it for mites but trust me, it works really well. It's a foliar spray that should be used every 2-3 days for 10 days. Just make sure to spray the underside of the leaves as that's where the little bastards live. Be careful when spraying your buds as you don't want to get mold. Adding a fan will help prevent that as well as making the environment in your room less hospitable to mites.

A lot of people like neem oil but be careful how you mix it or else you'll burn your plants. To be on the safe side I'd go half to third of the recommended amount as I've burned plants when following recommendations on product labels.

How long is your flowering period? You're probably too close to the end to use a No Pest Strip (by Hotshot) but those things work wonders. Just hang it in your room for 5-10 days and the mites will be gone. The downside is it releases dichlorvos into the air which is safe for people to be around but isn't something you want to use near plants that are close to harvest or drying buds. I like to use them for a couple of days at the beginning of a grow only whether or not I have bugs as a precaution. They're a good tool to keep handy but you need to use them carefully.

yeah i have 2 box fans running on high just blasting on them. the fans have been on them since theyve been babies.

right now they are about to finish week 6 or week 7 of flowering, i cant remember off the top of my head, i have it somewhere. but there are 7 plants in buckets and 4 in a hydro, all of them have some soft of bug problem on them. its not bad but theyre definitely there. been noticing webs more and more as the buds ripen.

i pretty much covered the plants with the spray that was recommended, the guy said it was safe to use while budding but i want to get rid of these guys before they ruin my crop. im going to do it again in about 3 days, spraying a little less than i did today and just crank the fans so they dry out as fast as possible. from what ive read this sucra stuff eats the bugs from the inside out. ill post back in a couple of days

i was also going to try neem oil on thursday, just to mix the sprays up to damage the mites as much as possible...
